Provide consistent feedback on scripts, visual treatments, and final audio and video mixes. And contribute to the long-term strategic direction of the podcast department, reporting to the Senior Director.
  • Talent and Expert Management: Work closely with CNN anchors, correspondents and external talent. Provide editorial direction for both on-camera video podcasting and traditional audio recording.
  • Cross-Platform Strategy: Ensure all content is optimized for both video-first and audio-first distribution. Coordinate the production of long-form shows alongside short-form social content for maximum discovery.
  • Show Development: Oversee the development and lifecycle of shows within your portfolio, from the pilot phase and launch to the iterative improvement of established flagship series.
  • Growth and Performance: In collaboration with the Senior Director and analytics teams, use platform-specific data to refine content strategy and increase audience retention and reach.

Qualifications & Experience...
  • Minimum of 10 years of experience in journalism, digital media or broadcasting, with at least 5 years in a management role overseeing podcast, audio or digital video production.
  • Proven track record in managing a portfolio of successful content, with specific experience in video producing and video-specific distribution strategy.
  • Exceptional editorial judgment and the ability to mentor teams in translating complex news into compelling, narrative-driven experiences for both eyes and ears.
  • Sophisticated writing, scripting and story-editing skills, with a deep understanding of pacing and narrative structure across visual and audio formats.
  • Extensive knowledge of video, lighting and audio production.
  • Strong people management skills with experience leading hybrid teams through complex, end-to-end production workflows.
  • Familiarity with professional production tools such as Adobe Premiere and Descript along with an understanding of podcast RSS management and video optimization.
  • Ability to execute on a high-level vision provided by the Senior Director while managing the day-to-day tactical needs of multiple production teams.

Core Performance Traits...

  • Accountability: Taking full ownership of your portfolio's performance and fostering a culture of editorial excellence within your team.
  • Agility: Balancing the needs of long-term series production with the urgency of the daily news cycle. Flexibility to work nights, weekends and holidays as deadlines warrant.
  • Collaboration: Working seamlessly with other Senior Managers and the Senior Director to ensure a cohesive and unified podcast slate.
